The Lordstown Endurance was an electric pickup truck. It was to be built at a former GM factory. They managed to produce 31 of the trucks,19 of which had to be recalled. The compny failed, but the factory is owned by Foxcon and is planned to be used to manufacture Fiskers in the future.

Fisker has been producing electric cars. They've made around 5,000 at this point. The Alaska is a planned future vehicle. Unlikely to happen. The auto industry is notoriously difficult to for new manufacturers. Telsa is one of the few car new car companies to see widespread success, and they are the exception.
